The fu '. ia the laid qiieetionla rrnt confined to Ire'and. England,Scotland and Wales, aa well aa Ireland,re borne down by tbc vicious presentoof landlordism, aid what the government diet to relieve one countrywill be claimed by the other-. Thislargely extenda "the land qnettion" aamatter of governmental policy,which may be one d the reasons foritipostponement. These lands are mostlyin few hands aid olten entailed. EaUil matt ls established 10 that everyowner of it may have tbe liberty tosell at h'K fleaeuro. The transfer ofland in England is now bunperetl byall kind) of rentrlctic in, Tcl'ct of feu-tlal times. It is' necesfitry that landshould be aa capable of being sold andti'unolerred aa other property. Butmore than this ia contemplate!. It iaproposed t establish s sort of localcourt or commission to drill wi h t';csubject. This oouit will be elsctui bythe tut-payeri, and the election will biwcaretullygaardclatt tatof membersof Parliament. Those local bodieswill bava power to acquire land bycompulsory process for public purposes, including dwellings for laborersand srtlaana and small holdings. Tbelandlords will be required to tell thenecessary land at a fair vn'uatlon,without power t? refuse. The landwill be taken from them and s fairprice paid fr It, and tha land so acquired will be placed within the rencbof small farmers on terms of payment- suited to their condition. Tbe greatevil of overgrown laid monopoly canhardly be overthrown by puttingsome nrtlon of around into otherhands. That evil is that the monopoly of land endows iti owner withkind of sovereignty. He can, andtoj oltm does, oppress his tenantry.He has made them in pait timea vote,not aa they pleased but aa he dictated."Have I not a right to do aa I pleasewith my own 7" a iked the Dukeof Newcastle fifty years agowhen he evicted considerablenumber ot his tjnanta at Newark,Nottinghamshire, because, againsthis command, they voted for Parliamentary reform. This kind ot "myown," so unjust aad mischievous,haa ti be done away wltb. Clear oftbe taint ot Socialism, the Englishpeople have grasped the ImpoiUntprinclplo that lies at the root otMr. (Jeurge'e teaching, and they willrequire not only that a few men shallgain email farms, but tbat a system beintroduced that will gradually lead tothe diffusion of property in land, andto the destruction of larga estates.This is a malt jr ol serious interettamong ourselves, for a time will come,and before long, when In this countrywe shall have to break up by law tlevil of land monopoly.MUITKBINUH Or WAR.Mutteringa of war are still beard in-the East, and any giving way or strongdivision among the European powerswould evidently lead to a oontea'iFailing that there Is liability that somaotip d' rtat, auch as that in EM Bulgaria, which gave jim to the Servianwar, may suddenly change the face offlairs and cause new troubles. Serviachafea impatiently under the defeatBulgaria hai taflitted upon it, and iafurioua at tbe idea of its paying a warindemnity aa claimed by Bulgaria.King Milan has summoned the entireServian fery to enter tbe field in fallwar equipment lor .a six weeks' drill.This if aetata of things that does netpromise well f or the preservation otpeaoe. In Greece matters are nleothreatening. Further additions havebeen made to the Meet, which bm bet nordered to Balamia, and an intend.!descent on Balonica is suspected. Thefleet of the international power Isclosely watching every moveiafntj ofthe Greek fleet; Vlat at da haveWn' ulyaterlonsly posted kt Athens threatening the Greek Government if itobey tbe order of the powers to disarm. Correspondents writing fromGreece say that war between that power and Turkey appears almost inevitnble; s revolt in Crete Is looked for.It the Greek Government retirewithout obtaining territorial compensation such as Bulgaria obtained,each is the feeling among the peoplethat its downfall would probably follow, and it ia said the King, weariedwith perplexities, is disposed toward aresign tioa ia preference to awaitingdethronement. It is not the old hatredcj tbe Tpk rat animates the Greeks,bit a determination to rule In Macedonia. The Greeks p'a: mnch confidence ia the friendship Mr. Gladstonebai alwaya shown them, and their delay to begin operations la probablyfrom waiting to tee what steps be willtake. Sofar hia receLtconmunliationswith the Greeks have net been highlyflattering to their hopes. Ituwia isfavorable to Greece, but is not infavorable position Just now to makesure of tbe advantages it hopes to secure in the Balkan, and therefore favors delay on the part cf Greece. Iiutthat country has prepared itselt forwar, an? objetti to continuing the expenses of such situation with nothing doing. Th attitude of the present government in Englaad appearslikely to prove tbe main influence insettling matters ; but France is urgingEngland to vacate Egypt, and if dispute should arise upon tbe subjectEngland would have to cultivate tbefriendship of Turkey, wbich wonldwork adversely to Greece.EJECTED ISJ (OlfllTTer.Mr. Bland's proposition, "thttfiomnd after the passage ot this act allholders ot silver bullion of the valueof f 50 or more standard fineness, shallbe entitled to have the tame coinedinto standard silver dollars," was defeated Monday in tbe House committee by vote of seven to five. Themembers of the coromit'ee from Kentucky and Indiana voted f r free coinage, wbich was unexpected. Some ottbe members ,wbo favor silver wereopposed to compromise measures, andsuch measures are at an end for thepresent. The question will comecleat ly before Coogress on suspension or unlimited free coinaso. It is better that the matter should thus be presenteddistinct' y, than that a comproniiw unsatisfactory to elthtr party shouldwaste time aid accomplish nothing.All the talk about bimetallism andpayment of bonds and other 'sideIssues," only diveit attenliiu from thesub j act lOAlly invtlved. Does thecountry desire to retain the uso of thedollars it now possesses? As t lingsstand their circulation is not rerioutlyobjected to. With the large quantityof coined dollars now in the vaults,and the lmliupcu'tlon ot the people toalmitan txteneive amount of theminto circulation, coui led with thedanger cf the coina falling in clreulatioa vu'ue if the amount of them become Inordinate shall we continuecoining more T That is the real pointat issue, the practical point in whichthe country is interested and withwhich its commerce is concerned.TlIK HO If. HOBAt'B It. LDUTOSJ.A wise and incorruptible judiciaryis the sanctuary to which the peopleconfidently flse fur protection. Thisis especially tt of the Supreme Couitof the State. Men are frequentlyelected judges of the inferior courtswhose decisions are mojkery of lawand justice. But those who suffer byincompetent or venal judges are consoled by tbe reflection that there ishigher tribunal to right tbe wrong. Itis not, therefore, surprising that thepeople of Ten nessee.e very eight years,manifest such deep and profoundinterest in the election of their Supreme Couit judges. The regularelection of these high officials ocoursthis year, and from one end ot theState to tbe other the people areunited in the demand for the nomination ot the best men. It isrelief to know that some of theablest lawyers of the tttere not only willing to serve the people if elected, but are avowed candidates for nomination. The Hon.Horace If. Lurton ot Olarksville hasannounced himself candidate. Weunderstand he is in the city, and intends to canvass the State. He ia wisein doing ao, for the people want to seeand know the men who aspire tl highjudicial positions, and are cot inclined to elevata those too dignified toask in place, and who wiltnot aerve the people unless draggedupon the bench. Judge Luiton wiltmake a favorable impression whereverhe go 3s. Ilia natural abilities aregreat aid his disciplined training inthe law have given him eminence intbe profession and established hisreputation as one of the profoundestnd ablest lawyers In the Slats, andhis decisions on complex questions ot law would place himamong the foremost I jurists ofthe State. Thoroughly groundedin tbe principles of common. Uw, andmaster of the great . fundamental principles , of jurisprudence, hia accomplished mind would easily detect thesophistries and technicalities of professional learning, grasp aid makeclear the rights and equities. It is saidof Judge Lurton by the ablest lawyersof the 6 late familiar with hie practice,that ba has an intuit ve Insight intothe heart ot case. Such naturallegal mind, combined with , hia wellknown honetty of purpose to servethe ends of justice and protect the iatsresta committed to hia charge, preeminently fit hhu tor judicial clRee.He loves the law, to aualyu if, to unravel it i intricacies aad expound itsprinciples ; his mind is rapid and dearin its ionceprloci, comprehensive inits reach, and his Opinions as oae'oflie juujree ol-the Supreme Court oftbe folate would be models cf wisdom,justice and law. ,Ran Jabot, Ik, ETaaarellat.Philadelphia Timt; If fr'uai Joae,the evangelUt, is an idiot or a fool, assome folks have said, the fact ia notapparent to the unassisted eye.

Both houses ofParliament were crowded to-day.Loid iiartington look a seat behindtne Treasury bench, and was loudlycbeered by tbe Conservatives. Thecrowd outside of tbe Parliament buildings, which usually givee an enthusiastic reception to tbe Prime Minister,only faintly cheered Mr. G'uJatoaenpgn hia arrival. There is s generalfeeling of discontent over the meagernew of tbe government's statementsregarding its proposed Irish measures.The fact that the government made noannouncement ot its programme forthe introduction of bi'ls ah"ecting Ireland is Uken as an indication that theCabinet ia it II undecided i to whatcourse it shall pursue.IN THE nOt'SS OF LORDSthe Marquis of Salisbury said hewould wait to eee what changes sixweeks would give to the policy of thegovernment, ilis remaik whi gretted with cheers.The Tories vainly fried to giadLord Uoeebery, tbe Foreign Secretary, to speak on tbe aitnation in theEast, which is very critical.in tub iiouas or cokuonsMr. Gladstone said the desire of thego7ernmenf was to propose to theHouse measures ol a positive and subttintive character, dealing with Ireland respecting social order and tbequestions cf land and the fnture government of Ireland, including amethod for auch government.

He said tostthe evidence procuied by tbo commissioners appoint id to inquire into thecauses ol the outbreak disclosed thefact that there wai a state of etfaiisexisting in tbe adminikt ation of thepolice that required attention.Mr. Justin McCarthy urged that thodiscussion of a home rule measuremutt precede any other Irish legislalatinn.

We suggestthat John exchange points with theeffete monarchies. They can teachhim how to build iron-c'ad ships,nd he can instruct them, in easyOllendorff stages, he to build ironclad bills.Philadelphia Timet: Mr. Morrison'snew taritt olll, which was introducedin the House yesterday, will, it isclaimed by iu author, reduce the revenues from custom", on the bads oflast year's collecting, about twentymillions.'

Deathleaves trail of woe even when hecats down age in its decrepitude, theebeaf fully ripe. But when he strikesdown tbe wife, young, beantiful andaccomplished ruthieet-ly drags berfrom ber flrst-torn-there is a sonowwhich no philosophy rai assuage,Mrs. Lncy Vanie Guinn wpsborn snd 'reared in Mexphis,known and loved by everybody. Herpresence was like sunshine in everybouse aid circle the entered, and shetouched to lling ehe did not adorn.Only three years ao she was one oftbe loveliest in the galaxy of beautifuleirlB that gathered in the sotikl circle.She knew no guile, was artless andinnocent as a cbi'd. Her heait wast o pure to think evil, aid Bhe was aswild end free aa the gez)lle upon themountains. But when ehe gave herheart and Laid to her husband, herbright piercing eves overflowed withthe wa era cf wifely efTectioa, and eheentered vigorously upon the duties oft'ue womanhood. Her gentle armsand loving heart had learned the ecstatic blisa of laying an infant pledgeof love nioi a mother's throbbingbreast ; her ears htard theme'oiyoftho infant's cry, when she suddenlydied, the idolized queen of a realm ofhappiness, surrounded by lovinghusband and devoted friends, wholavished npon her a wealth cf love.Black night came before itwas high nooa; the chordsnapped when - the foDg was halfcompltt'; life and life's works weresundered in twain the mother wastaken and the husband aad child areleft. The sunbeam of tbe vernal mornhas been extinguished by tbe dark,dismal night. Tbe music ol ber affectionate voice, swelling from herheart like the fresh incense cf natnrewhen the earth blushes in tbe beautyof spring, has been hashed in death.Who can enter Into the awful griifof tne husband tbua left by such awife ? The whole community tendersan offering of genuine sympathy tonflsctaiay of light to soften sorrow tbat fills heart and bruin withunspeakable anguish. This estimablelady, in brenthipg her own preciouslife away, left tbe solace of another toher grief-stricken husband. It maybe that this sweet bud of conrnbial love hat been given byProvidence to fill the rching void something to lovewhile grieving for the shattsred idolin the grave. A warm aad true sentiment of condolence goes out fromevery heart in Memphis to Mr. andMrs. Calvin F. Vance, the f tther andmother of Mrs. Guion. Standing intbe presence of providence so darkand mysterious, tbey are overwhelmedwith eenow that is unspeakable.Their daughter was loved by the entire community, and if sympathycould avail, their grief would soon beassauged.AnftlynlBg; tbe BaklnglPowdern.Under the direction of the NewYork St ite Board of Health, eightyfour of tbe ditl'drent kinds of bakingpowders, embracing all the brandsthat could be found for sale in theStat9, were submitted to examinationand analysis by Prof. (J. F. Chandler,a member of the H'ate Board and president of the New York City Board ofHealth, assisted by Prof. EdwsrdLG.Love, tbe well-known Ute UnitedStates government chemist.The clli ial report shows that largenumber ot the powders examinedwere found to contain aluran or line;many of them to such an extent as torender them seriously ot j actionable(or use in the preparation cf humanfood.Alum was found in twenty-ninesamples. This drug is employed inbaking powders to cheapen their ccstTbe presence of lime is attributed tothe impure cream of tartar of commerce used in their manufacture.Such cream of tartar was also analyzed,and found to contain lime and otherimpurities; in some samples to theextent of 93 per cent, of their entireweight.All the baking powders ot the market, with the single exception of"Royal" (not including the alum andphosphate powders, which were longaince discarded as unsafe or inefficientby prudent honsekeepeis) are madefiotn the impure cream ol tartar otcommerce, and consequently containtime to a corresponding extent.The only baking powder yet foundby chemicil analvbls to be entirelyfree from lime and absolutely pure isthe "Royal." This perfect purity results from tho exclusive use ol creamof tartar specially refined and prepared bv patent processes ot the NewYork Tartar Cotnf-aoy, which to'allyremove the tartrate of lime and otherimpurities. The cost of "this cberaua'.ly pure cream of tartar is muchgreater than any tther, and on account of this greater Cost is used in nobaking powder but the "Royal."J 'rof.
